Next Major Update "Sky Odyssey" - Rumor Round-Up & Discussion (Part 2)

Speed is better than armor if you don’t suffer some absolutely massive drawbacks. The Leclerc just has too many of those massive drawbacks in game.

Just look at the T-90M. It goes all in on armor and is incredibly mediocre at best.

This is a sensible take, just was pointing out those while few, that explicitly pointed to Leclerc’s advantage in speed as the basis for many of their arguments.

Well, not really; if that was the case,

-Leopard 2A7s would use DM73
-M1A2 SEPv3s and SEPv2s would use M829A4
-Challenger 3 (TD), Leopard 2PL and Leopard 2HEL would use DM63

Etc

It’s just Sweden whoses MBTs are depicted with a potential well beyond their real one instead of being limited to it at most for some reason. The only downsides of Swedish MBTs are the 1st g*n gunner “thermals” and not having the very best reload ever.

Yeah, I meant only addon ufp since Gaijin “doesn’t believe” there were internal improvements too xD

Hasn’t this been the case with air, just adding better variants of the same aircraft for the past years?

Screw the German shells, where are our domestic ones?

@Smin1080p_WT Hello Smin, are there any updates regarding F-14D HUD report? It got labelled as “fixed” but its not.

I thought Leopard 2PL operated DM63??

I wouldn’t say so, air has gone through much more powercreep than ground in the last few years.

Yeah but we also operated the:

Pz-531 MK1
Pz-531 MK2
PZ-511

Hello. As a temporary measure the F-14D was given the F/A-18 HUD. The devs already have plans to introduce a more bespoke F-14D one later.

You know the french have Leopards right? like actuall Leopards not “technicaly leopards, worst of both worlds”. And they perform the same as their dire need of a buff Leclerc.

Hi Smin, with the polished decals dev blog, is there a chance we get some new roundels with the major, that were shown a long time ago?

Thanks

Whether China’s infrared imaging KH29 can appear in this major update, as far as I know, it is the KD88’s seeker paired with the KH29’s warhead.

There is another question, which is, if I don’t want to use the circuit function for some weapons, why do I still have to carry a data link pod?

And now compare those French leopards stats to the German ones lol

Currently there isn’t sufficient evidence to support it. But the team are reviewing evidence.
